Two Two State Solutions
By Growltiger
The reelection of Bibi Netanyahu seriously frosted President Obama who, if rumors are correct, surreptitiously backed Mr. Netanyahu's opponent. Following the election, the President petulantly waited over twenty-four hours to congratulate Mr. Netanyahu on his victory. (Take that, Bibi!)
One can only guess the President felt "dissed". Not only would Netanyahu not do as he was told; neither would the Israeli voters. Too bad he can't sic the IRS on the whole lot of them. Then again, maybe he can. Lois Lerner seems to have vanished from the news cycle -- another of the stories that harmed Democrats that Democratic media couldn't gin up enough interest in to report with any excitement. Good thing Ms. Lerner never said "Mission Accomplished". Of course, perhaps it was not saying "Mission Accomplished" that was the problem but rather the party (Republican) of the politician who said it.
Following Netanyahu's victory, Lefties began ululating about the demise of the Utopian Two State Solution they've been pushing for years. You know, the one that would give Palestinians another Gaza from which to launch rockets at Israeli civilians.
Netanyahu, for some reason, believes responding to rockets being launched from Gaza (which Israel ceded ten years ago) is challenging enough, especially when Lefties on both sides of the Atlantic run to the U.N. to grouse when Israel responds to attempts to blow them up. Stubborn Netanyahu insists that before he'll agree to a Two State Solution with Palestine, he wants the Palestinians to recognize Israel has the right to exist. Picky, picky.
Naturally, President Obama is piqued. He's already won the Nobel Peace Prize; he just to have done something to have earned it. Netanyahu stands in his way, not only regarding the beloved Two State Solution, but also because he thinks the country that wishes "Death to America" and promises to wipe Israel off the map might not ought to have nuclear weapons.
Still, the President might be onto something with this Two State Solution idea. It's obvious from the gridlock in DC these days that America's Red States and Blue States don't like each other and have nothing in common except being stuck on the same continent. So why not a Two State Solution for us? We're already halfway there. Red States agree the Blue States have a right to exist.
